Hang on a second iv just noticed IRacing now work under mac OS (including macbook pro)

Iv jus bought a brand new macbook pro, time to get myself a wheel and get the laptop plugged into the 60" TV

Cancel that looks like no force feedback wheels for mac and apparently it doesn't run that well..

Reliability & battery life and just ease of use

I see Alienware have just released a console/pc going to have a look at that... just need to convince the missus to allow me to have a set up in the spare bedroom

First win on the ovals!!

Started P2, took the lead about 2/3rds through and set fastest lap....0 incidents too... but was VERY intense at times swerving through the wreckers

Class D on Road, but still Rookie on Ovals

There is a report function, but I think a lot of it is prob not meant, so not worth making official.

I noticed as i progressed on the Circuit races the races got better (better matched away from bangers).

I'm now qualifying on the front row for most races (oval and circuit) which makes a huge difference.

The game is certainly making me smoother with a steering wheel

I pop on now and again when they send me a deal through but soon get annoyed with it and say im not renewing it lol

Was watching Lando Norris on it the other week. I dont know if its the wheel setup or what but looks amazing when he's doing it.

PC2 and GT Sport are pretty good on the PS4 too. Are you guys still using GT6? Seen you online a few times.

[AK]

ive maybe been on GT6 2 or 3 times in the last year, just havent had much time for it.

Thats my IRacing spree ended for a while too, didnt really get back into it if i'm honest. Found it a bit frustrating (like last time i started).

My driving was cack to begin with, then once it improved I found the standards a bit hit/miss at my 'level', especially on the ovals. Its still fun, but when you take it easy and work your way back up... intentionally giving heaps of room, to then be taken out my some turd in a mass collision is just ARGGHHH
